- whifflag increased ( 18 normal, 27 tether -> 22 normal, 30 tether )
+ BTHROW damage increased ( 6 -> 9 )
+ increased glide speed when grabbing Umbrella Leaf with FSPECIAL (again)
• removed glide activation from grabbing Umbrella Leaf with a grounded uncharged FSPECIAL
• removed vertical boost from grabbing Umbrella Leaf with an aerial uncharged FSPECIAL
• slightly decreased vertical boost from grabbing Umbrella Leaf with an aerial charged FSPECIAL
• it is now possible to hold down to descend during a glide
• pressing down and special during a glide will perform a neutral drop
• FTHROW and BTHROW with Umbrella Leaf now have a small reverse horizontal boost ( celeste backboost lol )
+ removed move cooldown when throwing Umbrella Leaf

DSPECIAL
- Umbrella Leaf's recharge will now reset on death

+ Melon projectiles that have bounced on Umbrella Leaf now deal extra damage
+ Melon projectiles that have bounced on Umbrella Leaf no longer have parry stun

MISC
• infamous alt now writes the player's tag after using DAIR and FSTRONG
• added 5 new alts ( but removed 1 alt )
• small sprites implemented
• added camera shake to DAIR and FSTRONG
• added "recharging..." alert
• added compatibility for The Knight
• added compatibility for Final Smash buddy
• fixed bug in which USTRONG's projectile would turn invisible and bounce infinitely on Umbrella Leaf if the target opponent is on the same x coordinate

sorry for taking exactly 1 year to nerf this character
despite the nerfs, they can still melt stocks

v1.4
• BAIR first hit now has angle fipper 10
+ BAIR damage increased ( 7% (3,4) -> 9% (3,6) )
• DAIR descent will now accelerate
+ DAIR landing hitbox downward range increased
- DAIR consecutive Umbrella Leaf bounces now diminish more
- FSTRONG splash hitbox knockback scaling decreased ( 1.1 -> .8 )
- USTRONG projectile knockback scaling decreased ( .9-.6 -> .8-.5 )
+ USTRONG projectile consecutive Umbrella Leaf bounces increased ( 4 -> 5 )
+ FSPECIAL charge requirement decreased ( 28 frames -> 24 frames )
+ FSPECIAL grab hold time increased ( 30 frames -> 36 frames )
- Melon-pult now enters pratfall if Umbrella Leaf dies during a glide
- Removed upward boosts from consecutive mid-air glide activations
• Added a speed cap to FTHROW when used after a glide
• FTHROW knockback scaling decreased ( .3 -> .2 )
+ BTHROW knockback scaling increased ( .4 -> .5 )
+ Made it possible to grab Umbrella Leaf during the endlag window of USPECIAL
+ Umbrella Leaf is now invincible during USPECIAL 2
• Adjusted Umbrella Leaf physics
+ Aerial DSPECIAL now has a small upward boost when planting Umbrella Leaf
• Very slight color tweaking

Melon-pult's stalling technique of FSPECIAL glide into reverse DAIR has been nerfed. In return, these recovery options have been made individually viable due to offstage Umbrella Leaf setups no longer requiring you to burn a double jump.
This might be useful if I ever plan to get out of here and do something other than write messages in a log.

nvm lol

apparently wasn't as cool as Monarch ;-;

v1.1
this patch has nothing in it
well technically, this patch has everything in it
when this item was uploaded, it was completely blank
this was a common occurrence for other workshop devs
it was known as a dummy file
usually they would just delete the item and reupload it
i chose to just update it instead
everything seems fine
hopefully no consequences will derive from this later on :P
